x86, setup: Make the setup code also accept console=uart8250

2010-07-13T21:08:12Z

Make the boot code also accept the console=uart8250,io,0x2f8,115200n form of early console. Also add back simple_guess_base(), otherwise those simple_strtoull(,,0) are not going to work.

x86, setup: Early-boot serial I/O support

2010-07-12T21:46:00Z

This patch adds serial I/O support to the real-mode setup (very early boot) printf(). It's useful for debugging boot code when running Linux under KVM, for example. The actual code was lifted from early printk.
